Maybe he can add some info to this. Pretty sure he fished an area between Fire Island Inlet and Jones Inlet. A big area inside and out with alot of bridges and alot to learn.

I am very fortunate to have Bill as a mentor, but more importantly I am lucky to have him as a freind. Great person with incredible ambition, respect and knowledge of stripers. He has drive most could not imagine. I fish hard, but sometimes can only walk away shaking my head as he can do both tides a day week after week. He works his butt off pulling 10+hour days at work in the off months running his own business, just so he can hit it hard when its TIME.
The greatest thing about all of the numbers, is that he actually has many, many, MANY videos catching bass after bass. They are for select eyes only for obvious background reasons, but one clip sticks in my mind. Picture this, he is chunking bunker with a bud and they show the watch every time they land a bass. the bottom line was something like 25-30fish from 25-42 lbs in something like 2 1/2 hours, they went back that night and almost doubled there morning tally.
Mike the Author is a great person too, and I think he did a great job, especially as this was his first book.
